Prices from E/A

Front mounted kit fitted: £1364 Inc Vat

Front mounted kit supplied £850 Inc Vat

The kit is quite simple to fit the hardest part is turning the turbo housing 180 degrees and making a bracket to fit the wastegate.

Turbo mod’s £ 150 – 200 but this is included if they do the fitting.

It works out a lot cheaper to fit an upgraded charge cooler but EA have said the advantage with the front mount is its weight.

The charge cooler system weight a tone! As they have just explained to me the Air to Air front mounts do not require any pumps water etc so you are losing weight which can
Only be a good thing.

Im going to have a serious think about this although I only really wanna achieve 325-330 bhp it will work at more efficiently and if I ever want anymore power it only a case of changing the turbo o and maybe start thinking about the bottom end.

Cheers,

Jim
